In 1966, Revolver was the bridge between Rubber Soul and Sgt. Pepper&#8217;s Lonely Hearts Club Band. A giant step in the development of The Beatles&#8217; sound. The album signaled a shift in the direction of pop music, leaning heavily into psychedelia for the rest of the decade. In some ways, <em>Revolver<\/em> felt like an experiment that set a new precedent entirely. Here are 4 wild tricks The Beatles used in the studio, innovating pop and rock music forever.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Use of Tape Loops<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Initially, Paul McCartney&#8217;s idea, The Beatles used tape loops on tracks such as <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/m4BuziKGMy4?si=itTXX-HXGkwSvIk7\">&#8220;Tomorrow Never Knows.&#8221;<\/a> Paul was inspired by avant-garde artists of the time. Each member of The Beatles prepared loops at home and brought them into the studio. Tediously, this was done by cutting a section of reel-to-reel tape and splicing the ends together. The use of tape loops became popular throughout the rest of the decade. The heavy use of tape loops for &#8220;Tomorrow Never Knows&#8221; meant the reels extended out of the control room and down the hallway of the studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">John Lennon Sang Through a Leslie Speaker Cabinet<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>A truly innovative concept at the time was the idea of the Beatles&#8217; sound engineer, Geoff Emerick. On the track &#8220;Tomorrow Never Knows,&#8221; John Lennon sang through a mic that was wired to a revolving speaker. Simultaneously, Ringo Starr played the drums. The revolving speaker was inside a Leslie cabinet, designed to be used for a Hammond organ. The group and recording team were pleased with the result. Initially, Lennon considered swinging upside down to achieve a similar effect. Luckily, he never had to resort to that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">George Harrison&#8217;s Backwards Guitar Solo<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>With the use of modern recording technology, we can easily play tracks backwards. In 1966, this hadn&#8217;t been done before. For the track <a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/5XwXliCK19Y?si=xB05SWTaA3YMXQE4\">&#8220;I&#8217;m Only Sleeping,&#8221;<\/a> Harrison mapped out a solo that would work well played backwards, giving a dreamy effect. Just like the previously mentioned tape loops, this was achieved by physically cutting and taping the reel-to-reel. Nowadays, guitarists use a reverse delay pedal to emulate this effect. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Automatic Double Tracking<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>On April 6, 1966, EMI technical engineer Ken Townsend invented the use of &#8220;Automatic Double Tracking.&#8221; This technique became a signature sound for The Beatles. Originally, The Beatles would sing the same part twice for a double track, which can be heard on many of The Beatles&#8217; early recordings. Eliminating the need for recording the same vocal part twice, this technique uses delayed tape-based signals to double the vocals automatically. Ultimately, this saved studio time and added to the psychedelic effect on songs like &#8220;Tomorrow Never Knows.&#8221; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Beatles are considered the most commercially successful band, not only in the 1960&#8217;s, but of all time.
